Stand-up Comedy Workshop to be Held at William Paterson University


William Paterson University is offering a stand-up comedy workshop for people 14 years of age and up who wish to study, write and perform stand-up comedy. The class begins on November 20 with additional sessions on December 4, 11, 18, and January 8 and a final performance on January 15. Classes are held from 1 to 5 p.m. on the campus in Wayne.

The program is taught by Clayton Fletcher, a member of the American Comedy Institute of New York City, who will teach students how to find their comedic voice, assist them in the development of their stand-up material and present them with an opportunity to perform before a live audience. Fletcher regularly performs at comedy clubs including Caroline’s, the Village Lantern and Stand Up New York.

The workshop, which is open to the public, can be taken for class credit. Class size is limited. Registration fee is $399. For more information, contact Iris DiMaio, assistant director of extended learning, Continuing Education and Distance Learning, at 973-720-2491 or email at dimaioi@wpunj.edu.
